Recommendation
For the most flexibility and convenience, I recommend traveling by car. Renting a vehicle allows you to explore the surrounding areas and travel at your own pace. Additionally, the scenic views along the I-76 provide an enjoyable trip. Make sure to account for your toll costs on the Pennsylvania Turnpike when planning your budget.
